Today the United States wasted another #1B on an illegal war in Iran, money that could have been spent on funding health care or providing SNAP benefits or cancer research or academic scholarships for minorities. I could go on and on but I think you get my point. #endtheiranwarnow

He yells, β€œI’m a corrections officer”, but ICE didn’t give a sh*t.

MAINE: 7 ICE agents against one β€œsqueaky clean” corrections recruit.

The sheriff said, β€œThey all took off leaving his car with the windows down, the lights on, unsecured and unoccupied. Folks, that’s bush league policing.”

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

Graphic with a blue background and large white text reading β€œDEAR AMERICAN FRIENDS.” Below is a screenshot of a post explaining that Canada does not have CBS, that a β€œ60 Minutes” episode aired normally in Canada, and stating that Canadian networks are not subject to U.S. government interference. The post ends with β€œWe’re not under a dictatorship. You are.”

This timing makes a lot more sense now, doesn’t it?

Adm. Alvin Holsey resigned in October as commander of U.S. Southern Command right after flagging concerns about those U.S. military strikes on β€œsuspected” drug boats in the Caribbean.

He served for 37 years.

"I never wrote a picture in my life" he says.

"It's all a Democrat Hoax" he says.

$10 Billion lawsuit vs. the Wall Street Journal still on he says.

Wonder what he'll say in the deposition when asked about his pal EPSTEIN & their daily "wonderful secrets"?

Today we are divided like never before.

The horror in that video you saw today has happend to children at Annunciation Church and in Uvalde and in Sandy Hook and countless other schools over the last few decades.

If you’re outraged by the death of Charlie Kirk, you should be equally outraged for them.

Sen. Ruben Gallego: "Ashli Babbitt was a traitor. She was a traitor to this country. She was part of a violent mob that tried to overthrow our democracy...She didn't die protecting our country. She died trying to turn it down...She wasn't a martyr. She was and is a traitor."

The Chan-Zuckerbergs stopped funding social causes. 400 kids lost their school. Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg’s retreat from funding social issues forced the closure of a school Chan opened for disadvantaged families in Silicon Valley.

Priscilla Chan’s decision to stop funding the school she opened to help struggling families shows the risks for communities reliant on wealthy private donors.

Congress didn’t just lose its power it gave it away. On war, trade, and policy, lawmakers have willingly let the executive branch rule unchecked.

Pete Hesgeth β€” who wants to rename the Navy ship that honors Medgar Evers, a WWII veteran who landed on Omaha Beach β€” is using that same beach for a photo op in which he promises we will β€œnever forget” the veterans there.

What an unbelievable asshole.

Thou shalt focus on the current president's throbbing insanity and dementia. The previous president is no longer president and so it no longer matters.
